I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

I came across this Martha Stewart recipe for blackberry apple cakea few years ago. Every summer since then, I try to make it at least once. You can serve this as a dessert with whipped cream, or for breakfast {my favorite}, it’s very versatile. And scrumptious. Let’s not forget scrumptious.

Combined the flour, baking powder, and set aside. In another mixing bowl stir together the melted butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, milk, and eggs. Stir into flour mixture and mix until smooth.

Spread batter the evenly into prepared pan and arrange apple slices over batter. Place blackberries over the apples. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons of butter in a glass bowl and microwave for 15 seconds. Stir and pour over cake batter, berries and apples.

Bake 40 -50 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
